Heart Disease Reduced by Going Barefood
By admin | February 18, 2010
Cardiologist, nutritionist, author and researcher, Stephen Sinatra, M.D. reports about going barefoot in his February 2010 newsletter, Heart Health & Nutrition. Far fetched as it may seem, high blood pressure and blood clotting can be related to going barefoot. In what way, you ask?
Electrical engineers tell us the earth’s surface pulsates with negatively charged, free electrons. When a person goes barefoot or sleeps on a grounded mattress, the needed electrons can flow into the circuitry of your body.
You see, free radicals are positively charged compounds that are in need of negatively charged electrons to balance their deficiency. Various free radicals from foods, toxins and environment are the ultimate cause of heart disease, in most cases.
Free radicals are unstable and they steal electrons from weaker (but normal) compounds of your body. They interfere with your biochemistry. Free radicals produce inflammation, the mother of all degenerative disease. The result of inflammation in the blood greatly increased cardiovascular disease. This increases the risk of heart attack and stroke.
When you ground the body by skin contact with the earth’s surface or by conduit from earth to body (a grounded mattress), needed electrons can flow into your body. Why is this significant? This can be a source of needed free electrons that reduce inflammation and neutralize electrical charges.
Studies involving Dr. Sinatra have revealed why grounding your body can be beneficial. In a small study, virtually all but one (who regularly grounded himself already), it was demonstrated that changes in blood viscosity (a cause of hypertension) and sticking, clumping of red blood cells was significant.
Blood samples were taken before and after a 40 minute grounding of the subject’s feet. Examination of the before and after grounding with microscopic slides clearly showed less stickiness and clumping of blood cells.
When there is increased viscosity blood pressure rises; when there is stickiness of red blood cells this correlates to increased heart attack and stroke…in addition to the inflammation from free radicals.
Exactly why increasing the electron availability and less clumping can be explained by the zeta (electrical charge on red blood cells). In one of the studies that Dr. Sinatra participated in it was found that the zeta became more favorable. It apparently was due to the surface charge changes on the red blood cells.
The microscopic examination revealed that the red blood cells did not stick together and flowed more easily, reducing hypertension and clotting tendency.
This explains why regular grounding of your body can be beneficial to cardiovascular health. It suggests grounding can reduce hypertension, heart attack and stroke because it furnishes available electrons. The previously prevailing thought was antioxidants came chiefly from compounds found in your diet…Denis Van Loan D.D.S.
